DIY Lashes: Black Tears

Think I’m going to have to think of more ways to make weird lashes, it was so fun making these and I’d really like to push myself further and see what other crazy designs I could come up with. I have a few idea bouncing around in my head but going to let them marinate a little bit before using them in a tutorial.

“Allergic to Latex? Maybe use sculpt gell instead?”

If you’re allergic to latex you could usesculpt gell, unfortunantly this isn’t the cheapest material to use but it would be re-usable (provided you remove and handle it carefully). You could also use lash glue too, except if you’re allergic to latex you probably have an allergy to most lash glues as latex is one of the prime ingredients :/

could you please do a video on good brands for very pale skin as i have never found a concealer or foundation that matches my cool toned very pale skin (i even went to get my perfect match found at clinique and it was orange on me)! your foundation and concealer always looks so flawless i was wondering if you could help :)

Thanks for the sculpt gel tip! I had no idea latex was in lash glue! D: I’ve never used it but was thinking of wearing some rhinestones to prom (as you often show in your vids XD ). Do you have any ideas what I could use as an alternative adhesive ? Latex free that is. Thanks in advance ^.^

If you want to get into makeup the first 3 things I would recommend are:

1) A GOOD set of brushes. It’s better to invest in brushes that will last a long time and do a good job than a crappy set which will just about work and break after a months time.

2) Foundation. You do not need to get an etntire set. I recommend that you get five. Two of the palest white skin tones, one of the mid range tones (so a light brown) and two black skin stones. From there you can mix the foundations to get the skin tone of anyone you need to.

3) A neutrals pallet or something like the 120 pallet.

If you can I would also recommend you geting some basic skin care items for your kit and a good makeup remover. As a makeup artist your job is not only to apply the makeup nicely but also to ensure that you start and leave the client/models face in good condition :)

Hi Klaire! Just wanted to ask if there was anything else other than latex and sculpt gell that could be use to make these. I really wanna do a shoot using this makeup but it’s pretty hard to get those kind of things where I live, it’s really order online and what not. If you have other suggestions that would be awesome!
Thanks!
